Where do I start??

My sleep problems have been going on since October now.

I go to bed!! all intentions of going to sleep!! then 1am, 2am,3am 4am......hear milk man....then 5am I can finally drift off to sleep.
EVERY single night!! Then I am shattered all day long....... then come evening....fell tired. Get kids off to bed, get uniforms ready....feel ready for bed....1am,2am,3am,4am....milkman,5am....I'm a walking zombie!! but I can't seem to do anything!!

Hold on what day are we on?? Tuesday..... Sunday night... I went to bed at 00:00am. I had done the hot milk....warm bath..even the aromatherapy candles. Cuddled up in bed.....5am when I fell asleep....yet again.
Monday morning ...... shattered..... feel like crap YET AGAIN all day. Monday night.... went out for a drive with ginger and his friends to B/POOL.. to get away for a while ( bit of me and ginger time as he has been working so much recently)............. came home... felt a little tired. Talked to friends for a while....then they left. And now... here I am at STUPID O'CLOCK (07:05) in the flooking morning AGAIN!!

and there is no point going to bed, I have to get up with the kids at 7:30am for school

GOD LET ME SLEEP WHEN OTHER PEOPLE ARE SLEEPING!!

	Same here. Not sleeping is a nightmare. Well not really a nightmare, as you can't get to sleep to have one. I hate drugs, but Kalms sometime help. You can buy them at the chemists, and they are natural.

	Another one for you is Lanes Quiet Life tablets......I used to use these when I was on night duty. They worked for me...but you do need to take three an hour before you go to bed.

	No Flashy, I have had this before!! when I WAS working....and believe me, that was even harder as I wasn't getting to sleep til 4am and back up at 6:30am for work. Anyway, Ginger has bought me some SLEEP AID tablets from ASDA. The women said its the best over the counter sleeping tab that can be bought!! GOD LET IT WORK.
